Title: Curved movable beam stop array and cbct comprising thereof
Inventor: AHN SO HYUN
IPC: A61B6/03
Filed: 2014-09-30
Abstract: Disclosed is a curved movable beam-stop array (BSA) which can be applied to accurately and efficiently improve the quality of images of a cone-beam CT  (CBCT) system, and particularly, can be applied to not only a simulation CBCT system necessary for radiotherapy and a CBCT system mounted in a radiotherapy apparatus but also to a wide range of fields including plastic surgery, maxillofacial surgery, dental surgery, and the like. The BSA comprises a generator, a curved grid and a controller. The generator generates radiation beams while rotating to a gantry angle. The curved grid is positioned in the radiation direction of the radiation beams generated from the generator. The controller controls operations of the grid. In the BSA, the grid comprises a plurality of slits spaced apart from each other at a predetermined distance, the plurality of slits allowing at least a portion of the radiation beams generated from the generator to pass through. The controller moves the slit by a predetermined distance d when the generator moves by a predefined angle a. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce the amount of radioactivity absorbed in an object to be examined and to decrease the time required to photograph through only a single scan. Further, it is possible to perform photographing in a wide area and simultaneously, to reduce the production of a penumbra. Further, it is possible to reduce errors in estimating a scattered degree of beams, thereby obtaining more precise and definite images. Further, the BSA is easily attached to a radiation planning CBCT system and a radiotherapy apparatus, to be used in identifying the position of a patient or tumor just before radiotherapy is performed.

Abstract: A bonded structure (10) includes a laminate (12A), a laminate (12B), an adhesive (14) that bonds together the laminate (12A) and the laminate (12B), and an optical fiber (16) sandwiched between the laminate (12A) and the laminate (12B). When a pressure is applied to the optical fiber (16) only from a predetermined direction, the sectional shape of the optical fiber (16) changes to an elliptical shape, so that birefringence occurs, whereby the shape of the light spectrum changes so as to have multiple (e.g., two) peaks. The optical fiber (16) is used as a sensor for detecting the bonding condition between the laminate (12A) and the laminate (12B) based on this birefringence. Thus, with the bonded structure 10, it is possible to determine whether members are bonded together appropriately.
